175 MF lift issue

[mechanic]

Just curious if about the 3 point lift adjustment. Background on issue.. I was putting out round hay bails. After I set one out I raised the lift up. Took of across the field and hit a bump. The lift did the bounce thing and wouldn't go back down! I had this happen years ago and the hydraulic piston came far enough out of the cylinder far enough to bust the metal ring and scar everything. I replaced the piston with the updated piston and oring set up. Everything has been good till now. I pushed the lift down and it would not raise back under pressure. I assume the same issue. I have the parts and currently replacing the Owings and such. My question is there and adjustment I am missing? To keep the lift from over lifting? Obviously I didn't have weight on it. I should not of had it high like that...but such is life. Any recommendations would be helpful!

There is an adjustment for max height. Do you have a service manual? There is a whole procedure.
